Opinion

USDC SDNY DOCUMENT UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT ELECTRONICALLY FILED SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK | DOC #: 9/8/2023 MANOLITO ALTAMIRANO, et Plaintiff, . 22-CV-3459 (BCM) -against- 535 WEST 163RD STREET HDFC., et al., ORDER Defendants. BARBARA MOSES, United States Magistrate Judge. The Court has received and reviewed the parties’ joint letter dated September 7, 2023 (Dkt. 44), attaching a Revised Settlement Agreement (Dkt. 44 Ex. 1) and notifying the Court that the Revised Settlement Agreement "limits the 'Mutual Non-Disparagement' clause to ‘willful and untruthful’ disparagement," "eliminates the 'no re-hire' clause," and attaches "contemporaneous time records and documentation of expenses.” (Dkt. 44 at 1.) Having carefully reviewed the financial and non-financial terms of the revised Settlement Agreement, the Court finds that they are fair and reasonable as required by Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, 796 F.3d 199 (2d Cir. 2015). Accordingly, the Revised Settlement Agreement is APPROVED, and the parties shall file a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice no later than October 9, 2023. Dated: New York, New York September 8, 2023 SO ORDERED. aw BARBARA MOSES United States Magistrate Judge
